[quote=Anonymous]There are services that help people with low vision adjust to their declining condition. Im sure her providers have referred her. Life will look different for her due to this decline. But depending on how she adjusts, she may be able to stay put. If she’s open to discussing, I’d be asking about this so you can ease your mind. I have a nephew and a SIL who have low vision which continues to decline. Driving is out of the question and they don’t live in a metropolitan area with good public transportation. It’s impressive to watch them learn to navigate their ever changing reality. I also have a colleague who lost his vision gradually over a period of about a decade. He lives in this area. I will say it is much easier for him because of services like metro access. He continued to work long after his vision deteriorated to the point of not being able to drive. My point is that many people remain functional and that might be where you want to focus some energy. [/quote]
